> murder in moderation, meth in moderation, punching grandmas in the face in moderation

I know these are your extreme examples but this is literally how society functions in each one.

Meth in moderation = prescription stimulants for ADHD or narcolepsy.

Murder in moderation = war, capital punishment.

Punching grandmas in the face in moderation = arrests of shoplifters or intoxicated grandmas apparently require physical restraint, lots of possible examples of violence for purported good on youtube.

Each of your hard lines are things that literally happen daily around the world, in moderation.
